Overall, the book is an excellent read. Sadly, not all of the stories are strong, and even within the 13 stories presented in this book there is evident plot recycling. Still, this is a must read for any fan of Fantasy or any aspiring author. Howard's descriptions are often vivid without dragging on, though he does have an over-fondness for some words (Thews and Loin-Cloth among them).

Overall very good, but I found the ending implausible.
